After picking up a disappointing loss in Detroit tonight (108-104), the Toronto Raptors dropped to 42-29. They are now fourth in the Eastern Conference, behind the Atlanta Hawks, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Chicago Bulls. Throughout the season, defence has been a major concern for the Raps, but 2015-03-25 00:40:342/14: Tip of the Tower- Toronto Raptors Trade Deadline Targetshttp://tipofthetower.com/2015/02/14/toronto-raptors-trade-deadline-targets/

The Raptors are &#8220;sniffing around&#8221; for an upgrade at power forward, writes Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders, who hears from league sources who mention David West, Taj Gibson and Kenneth Faried, among others, in connection with Toronto. However, the Raptors aren&#8217;t willing to part w2015-02-05 11:36:122/5: Baller Mind Frame- Why the Rudy Gay Experiment Failed in Torontohttp://www.ballermindframe.com/2015/02/05/why-rudy-gay-experiment-failed-in-toronto/
When the Toronto Raptors acquired Rudy Gay from the Memphis Grizzlies, there was a consensus in Toronto that this was the missing piece since Gay was considered by many to be a top-five talent at the small forward position. Toronto already sported the fantasticÂ backcourt duo of DeMar DeRozan and Ky2015-02-05 00:41:1312/29: HoopsRumors- More Players Become Eligible For Vet Extensionshttp://www.hoopsrumors.com/2014/12/becoming-eligible-extensions.html
There&#8217;s been a run on veteran extensions of late. Four players have signed such deals within the past six months after only two had signed them since the 2011 lockout that begat the existing collective bargaining agreement. Zach Randolph, Tony Parker, Anderson Varejao and Rudy Gay all agreed t2014-12-29 11:35:3912/25: Tip of the Tower- Toronto Raptors Chug Like a Piston and Show Something in Detroithttp://tipofthetower.com/2014/12/23/toronto-raptors-chug-like-piston-show-something-detroit/
Toronto Raptors Chug Like a Piston and Show Something in Detroit In the midst of a heartbreaking loss at Chicago and a steamrolling victory in New York, the Toronto Raptors win against Detroit deserves a deeper look. The Raptors started slow, but it&#039;s not how you start... it&#039;s how you fin.2014-12-25 03:37:0012/22: Hoops Habit- Progression Of Jonas Valanciunas Key To Raptors' Title Hopeshttp://hoopshabit.com/2014/12/22/progression-jonas-valanciunas-key-raptors-title-hopes/
Last season, the Toronto Raptors awakened the win-starving fans of Toronto -- and not only rallied the city, but the entire nation of Canada -- by unexpectedly making a midseason playoff push. This year, the Raptors have continued to ride their wave of momentum and have rushed out to a 21-6 recor...2014-12-22 10:37:2512/13: HoopsRumors- 2014/15 Salary Rankings: Centershttp://www.hoopsrumors.com/2014/12/salary-rankings-centers.html

In their brief 20-year history, the Toronto Raptors have struggled to make a deep postseason run. They&#8217;ve had some great draft picks but they weren&#8217;t able to form a contending team around them.

The Kings, without DeMarcus Cousins for the second straight game, lost to the Memphis Grizzlies Sunday afternoon. It is what it is.

The Suns, the NBA&#039;s best shooting free throw team coming into Monday, got to the foul stripe just 11 times in a 104-100 loss to the Toronto Raptors, but it was turnovers, especially late, that did Phoenix in.

The two most po**** picksÂ to win the NBA title are at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to the number of players they return from last season.

Landry Fields was never meant to be a Toronto Raptor. Even when Bryan Colangelo offered Fields a three-year, $18.75 million deal, he was still just a means to an end for a team with bigger aspirations. Colangelo spent the summer of 2012 desperately trying to bring Canadian hero Steve Nash to the ...2014-10-21 09:40:2410/20: Red Rock Basketball.com- The Case For â€” Jonas Valanciunashttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/RedRockFantasyBasketball/~3/lwrHAEP_1LA/

It wasn&#039;t pretty, and it didn&#039;t matter, but the Toronto Raptors returned to the court on Sunday night to tip off the new season. Or at least a new preseason. The Raptors walked off the court as victors, but that is far from the primary focus for preseason games. Victories are secondary ...2014-10-07 11:40:1810/3: Hoops Habit- Toronto Raptors: From Doormat To Greatness?http://hoopshabit.com/2014/10/03/toronto-raptors-doormat-greatness/
Both Masai Ujiri and Dwane Casey are unwilling to make public predictions for the season at hand, but that doesn&#039;t have to stop the rest of us from doing so.

Most Important Player: Kyle Lowry Recent Team USA alumnus DeMar Derozan may be the Raptors&#8217; best player, and could make a strong case for this role, but Lowry will be the engine that drives this team forward. Last season, the team almost traded the at-times temperamental point guard only to se2014-10-02 15:41:369/26: Hoops Habit- Toronto Raptors: Lou Williams And The Benchhttp://hoopshabit.com/2014/09/26/toronto-raptors-lou-williams-bench/
DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry carried huge burdens for the Toronto Raptors last season. DeRozan finished the regular season having played 3,016 minutes, good enough for third most in the league behind only Kevin Durant and Monta Ellis. Kyle Lowry wasn&#039;t far removed at 2,861 minutes, sitting just2014-09-26 11:38:199/24: HoopsRumors- 2014/15 Expanded Roster Countshttp://www.hoopsrumors.com/2014/09/expanded-roster-counts.html

The biggest challenge awaiting the Toronto Raptors in the 2014-15 campaign will be topping their success from last season. In 2013-14, the Raptors rebounded from a slow start to capture the Atlantic Division crown, winning a franchise-best 48 games along the way.

So just when it looked like the Toronto Raptors had wrapped up all of their business in free agency, they go and sign Greg Stiemsma to a one-year deal. With the addition of the 6&#039;11&#34; center, the Raptors now head into training camp with 17 players, two above the limit once the regular se...2014-09-06 10:37:598/20: HoopsRumors- Undrafted Players In The NBAhttp://www.hoopsrumors.com/2014/08/undrafted-players-the.html
August and September are the months when undrafted players step into the spotlight around the NBA, as many of them sign training camp deals with hopes of making an opening-night roster. Most of them are long shots to make it past the preseason, but as a group, it&#8217;s a fair bet that a few of [&#2014-08-20 18:36:028/20: Hoops Habit- Toronto Raptors: Tim Leiweke Rumors A Cause For Concernhttp://hoopshabit.com/2014/08/20/toronto-raptors-tim-leiweke-rumors-cause-concern/
Initially I was going to take this opportunity to discuss the signing of Jordan Hamilton to a reported one-year deal that the Toronto Raptors made official earlier this week. The addition of Hamilton, a 6&#039;7&#34; forward who spent time with the Nuggets and Rockets last season, now brings the...2014-08-20 09:38:068/13: Hoops Habit- Brooklyn Nets: Potential Replacements For Deron Williams http://hoopshabit.com/2014/08/13/brooklyn-nets-potential-replacements-deron-williams/
The Brooklyn Nets have yet to find a long-term solution at point guard after trading for Deron Williams in February 2011. Back in May 2014, Williams had surgery on both ankles, which should be a tell tale sign that the former All-Star guard&#039;s best days are behind him.

So much for August being a quiet month in the NBA. Typically after the free agent frenzy in July, news of signings and trades levels off considerably until training camps begin in October. As for the 2014 offseason, it hasn&#039;t exactly fit into this model.

Sacramento and its NBA team are no strangers to put-downs, but itâs rare to hear it from a current player whoâs yet to runÂ with the club.

In my opinion, the 2013-14 season was a good one for the Toronto Raptors. Early on, it was difficult to determine whether the goal was to carve out a path to the draft lottery or to take a shot at squeaking into the playoffs. After a 6-12 start, they appeared to be at a crossroads.

A late night report from AM 1510 in Boston has sent NBA fans into a tizzy, especially those that root for the Celtics as they&#8217;ve brought to a light a potential trade that would send Sacramento Kings star DeMarcus Cousins to the Boston Celtics in exchange for Jeff Green, Jason Terry, Jared Sull2013-01-07 13:35:361/3: A Royal Pain- Amick &#8211; Kings Passed On Damian Lillard Because Of Maloofs?http://aroyalpain.com/2013/01/03/amick-kings-passed-on-damian-lillard-because-of-maloofs/
I fully admit I wasn&#8217;t a big Damian Lillard fan coming into the 2012 NBA Draft &#8211; not that I didn&#8217;t think he had talent or wouldn&#8217;t be a good fit for the Kings, I was just a bigger fan of Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and to a lesser extent, Thomas Robinson.

Itâs very simple; the Kings can no longer deal with DeMarcusâs Cousinsâs horrid attitude thatâs serving as an obstacle towards the teamâs and his success, while the Celticsâ front court canât really be called a front court anymore.

The Sacramento Kings might have had some big intentions coming into the 2012-13 NBA season, but those hopes were quickly dashed with poor play and now the Kings, who sit at 7-17, continue to flounder in the worst of ways.

Karuzela na dobre siÄ rozkrÄca. Trzy kolejne nazwiska graczy sÄ bliskie podpisania umowy z nowymi zespoÅami i zmienienia barw. KaÅ¼dy z nich jest zawodnikiem typowo zadaniowym, a chodzi konkretnie o Jasona Kapono, Jamaala MagloireÂ i Chucka Hayesa.
